Age wise he is more deserving and worthy of it.
I also like the way the ooni abstained from making an issue out of it.

Man pass man, Chairman of the Presidents General Obasanjo.

President Tinubu Chairman of Atiku & his boy Gringory.

Old age is setting in.
I could see Alzheimer’s setting in if this is true.

This news might be fakeo

There is another video showing that it was a different chair from that of the Ooni.

The Ooni's seat is a bigger gold chair.

Stop posting video for clicks ooni wasn’t in the party when this nonsense happened and you’re making seems ooni know anything about what happened in the party. This was ooni arrival do you see any obj or anyone around his sit?no pic.twitter.com/N3q8X5Rt4w

Assuming it was this 90 year old man his retinue of praise singers would have jumped on attacking Obasanjo

Obasanjo has been behaving irrationally since President Tinubu was sworn into office

Jagaban till 2031.

Pa Obasanjo is free to sit down anywhere he wants.

Baba Obasanjo is always stubborn headed. Baba knows his rights. There is one situation he asked all Obas present in an occasion to stand up for him as a former president just as they did for the governor.

Before ex General will send soldiers

I don't understand. The same man who prostrated to the Ooni wants his seat

He complained of a blocked road that lasted for about 3 hours yet we all claim Tinubu is the Man to go with. Nigerians, wise up

Don't vote failure again...

Ooni is still free to come , I doubt if Alaafin can be invited to such occasion

my family still dey kneel and pray daily for both yar adua and obasanjo. all the money and houses we made and got in our family as civili servants came between 1999 and 2015.

Alaafin has thrown himself to the offside of things.

When they were commissioning 2 Oyo State roads during the week, the Ooni and Alake were invited, Alaafin was ignored.

A king is there for his people, he is a custodian of their cultural and traditional spirituality and identity/heritage...a king must never be proud or see himself as above the people.

Age has nothing to do with Obasanjo’s childish behaviour.

He didn’t even use age as his excuse for being an irresponsible person. He said he was a FORMER president o. Someone who is of no consequence politically in Yoruba land.

You should have asked him which road he built in Ota and Ogun state as President.

The Alaafin's matter is not only Ogun state, it's across other SW states, except Oyo and may be Lagos state

Umahi launched a road project in Oyo state last week, Dapo Abiodun was invited while Gov Seyi , the state governor wasn't.

Sebi I have been warning about the behavior of Oyo political and cultural elites in precise

That's nonsense from OBASANJO .

A king is million ways bigger than any criminals calling themselves politicians ....

Na so e wan take corner-corner become OLOWU that year ... What a greedy and Useless OLD FOOL .

Emeka, it is now you know he's of no political consequence.

He is of no consequence but Atiku begs for his support every 4 years.

He is of no consequence but Sule Lamido from your Pdp goes to Obasanjo Hilltop like someone going to Mecca.

Only God knows why this old man is always in need of help and support to save him from falling yakata like Humpty Dumpty

The ooni just proved that he is bigger than obasanjo by not making an issue of it. Being wise is not by how old you are is by such action.

Obasanjo just belittled himself once again with this arrogance.

Confused old man. No be him prostate for one Kabiyesi that year?

Sophistìcated Rascality everywhere.

I TAP the Grace of growing old like that from the Man you love to hate .

That's Gods doings and no one can stop it .

I don't know for you anyway....

Nairaland has become boring which made commenters and viewers to reduce plus the unnecessary rules and banning. If it was before this page would have being in 3-4 pages right now but it's still in one page.

People are no longer interested in Naira land and it's a bad market and a bad omen.

Ebora Owu nobe Nickname. Lol

100% cappings....Three times president.

village people everywhere in Nigeria.

You invited a president to a birthday occasion and gave a traditional ruler a more befitting seat.
